CSOP options use a simultaneous exercise and sale — no upfront cash needed. You exercise at the HMRC-agreed UMV and immediately sell at the exit price. The gross gain is taxed as Capital Gain at 20%. You may qualify for Business Asset Disposal Relief at 10% — speak to your adviser. Total shares in issue: 158,922.
